I think the staggered motors would give more balance, in f 2 when it started there were a few fountains that spun Mike A was in one or two and harrys 27 ol spun out in a slow turn on smooth water its the steps you have to learn and get use to the boat. in f 2 those drivers were pros and it happened. art

I have to be last night my twinky stopped working told my wife she should have made a appointment with me before I went out with ole and sick stinger mike and drank a bunch of beer . I told her I will get some blues pills this week so this won't happen again . boy its tight sqeeze out here in the dog house with a lap top until monday. art aka artie or artimus thats what my labs call me!!! ps I will call them I just bought a new 18volt sawsall.

I believe that is pretty much the point of this thread.. someone like you who knows what to look for and feel for can drive a T/S all day long with no problem, it's the idiots who THINK they know is where the problems begin!!! We can all drive Earnardt jrs' race car and all end up in the wall in a lap or 2... is the car now unsafe ????

All new boats from now on are going to be stepped hull boats..... we need to learn to drive them

There are 2 types of Gladiator drivers....... those that have been tossed and those that are gonna be tossed.

Which one are you???

Yeah- I wouldn't imagine that a non-performance boat would be dragged into this. On the insurance co's side of things, I'm figuring it's just a matter of time before they add this up and decide the risks are too high.

Uh.......he's the super tossed - haha. Brett I saw your office the other night when we went to Saporos / Sushi!

Gosh, I miss Saporo's...

I agree!!!


Id be thrilled if my boat went 70

1986/7 a friend did'nt learn from my example and put his Dad's 930 over a landscaping rock perimeter, place there by the homeowners tired of people loosing it around the corner and ending up in their yard. I put my Dad's 928 into a farm field a month earlier, it was raining and I did'nt have my license at the time.............

Both Porsche and Ferrari offer high performance track courses, coming from selling fast cars most people even long time "experienced" customers need it! For performance boats I if me would double this need ten fold, even consider not selling if they did not take Mr. Martin's course, defiently not if I felt like they needed it to the point of being talked into it!!!!!
